Of the ten, there was always one of them that was either vacant or the tenant would stop paying. With that said, we were still generating a profit on the other nine homes. The cash flow from each house was $200 to $250 a month after expenses. Now we had the law of numbers on our side. This approach is an excellent way to control the asset and have ‘staying power’. If one house temporarily stops producing, we still have nine houses that are paying.
